My guy, you are preserving this beautyful tool for the next generations and decades. Imagine how many persons used and cherished this pair of scissors before you. And now, thanks to you, these scissors will be around for another 200 years, and many, many people will love and cherish them. BTW I love the accent.
Hey ScoutCrafter! Those short coffee sticks make for great small glue stirrers/applicators for smaller projects! Having a few of the lying around can be useful!
Oftentimes the best gifts are from those who have no obligation to give, yet as small as they may seem, are cherished beyond others. Johns mug is a perfect example.
Very nice! I didn’t know Craftsman made scissors. Any time I see a sewing room at an estate sale I look for the “good scissors”. I have a pretty good collection now. Take care 😃👍🏼
I bought a cheap set of taps and dies for a job and it had a thread pitch gage in the case. I use the gage 3 times as often as the taps or dies. Sharpening scissors is a favorite gimmick sales opportunity. I occasionally find a pair that have been ground to destruction. Rippled and crooked because someone used the "sharpener" on their electric can opener. Your drawfile and stone method is the way to go. 😁😎
Dave the steel is so hard on scissors that draw filing is a very slow process but stops you from taking off too much metal! (Which I have done more then once!) LOL!! Thanks!
Nice Craftsman scissors and tutorial on sharpening. Never seen a sharpener hone like that. I too appreciate good shop/construction scissors. Really like my Klein Tools 23015 shears/scissors. Been using them a few years.
Very nice rescue of a beautiful pair of scissors. I inherited my father's Wiss shears which he used in commercial artwork. Really good quality and still very sharp. They also have black handles. My grandfather had a saw sharpening business for many years in CA. What you called the "burr" on the edge of the blade, he called the "tang." Thanks
The Craftsman scissors turned out really nice. Thanks for giving a demonstration on how to repair the mug, I've always use super glue it seemed like they don't last that long now I know why. Thanks for all the instructions.
Funny thing... I recently added another rather large US General Toolbox to house the many tools I didn't know I needed until seeing them on your channel. I think I learn something every video. Never picked up on "hollow ground" until now. Maybe that explains why a few of my scissors don't work as well after my sharpening routine.
Chris! Don't feel bad I screwed up a few pair of scissors before I realized what was going on.. I'm still not an expert but I'm getting better! =D Thanks!
Sweet. I have a pair of Wiss #22 which I use in the shop all the time for cutting felt, upholstery, making rags and (don't hurt me) cutting sand paper. I also need to repair a keepsake mug and used MarineTex white on the handle.....it filled in the chips quite well.
Lou- I too am a big fan of using scissors in the shop- Like you I believe they are a indispensable tool. There are a lot of wives tales and rumors about how to use and not to use them.. I will cover them all in my Scissor special very soon!!!!
That is a beautiful scissor! I’m always amazed how everything has been cheapened. It’s hard to find a great pair of general purpose scissors. I’ll have to keep an eye out for a pair.
Use the shears to cut up all the junk mail then return to sender. The little coffee lid "not stirrer" could be good to apply small amounts of exopy in hard to reach places...Just a thought
Nice job on the scissors! They look great. And isn’t it good having a good audience that enjoys your quirky jokes as much as you do.... the mascot is a fan of the scoutcrafter comedy!!!
Hi scout, nice job on the scissors, I expected a fancy paint job on the handles, lol , uncle fester seemed to like em anyway,Ha, ha, thanks for the video, stay safe mate and best wishes to you and your's, Stuart.uk.
Geez, you know how many scissors I've destroyed in my youth? Now I sharpen them and have to watch my fingers, even the pre-school little guys are sharp as heck. I used to sharpen hair cutting scissors for the inmates and they would ask who sharpened them and I'd tell them I did so they can cut hair better. Oddly enough, never had a brawl during hair cut day. They rather enjoyed it. Those scissors turned out better than new. They cut marvelous, great tips to sharpen them. Don't lose a finger!
The guy on Hand Tool Rescue has a recipe for japanning. I've watched him do it a couple of times. Ingredients are extremely inexpensive, too. I like a pair of straight shears like that. Among other things, my son got me a pair of Klein electrician's scissors for Christmas. Love them!
Most japaning was done with after the 40's and enamel paint was the preferred product used. Now powder coating is big but the 400 degrees needed to set the paint can mess with the temper of the blades!
.Good repair on the mug, nice one ,stay safe and have a great week..the scissors are a lot sharper than the ones my grandma used to trim my hair..lol..
When I hear those siccors snip it reminds me I really need to find a good pair of siccors for the shop. But again, when I'm looking for a pair cheapskate me quickly steps in 😂 The shops you have a in the US are so incredibly well stocked. The supplies a Walmart holds for car parts or paint, it's amazing too me. We are lucky to find any two part epoxy at all. If I was to want something slow setting I probably can order it, but I would need to pay around 9 dollars in shipping, wich makes things expensive quickly. Anyways great start if the week!! We've had such a beautiful day here weather wise :) Thanks you, I look forward to Wednesday's!!
Wow they came up sharp ha ha great tips on the sharpening I always Struggle with that I bet they have seen some use nice heavy set they Cut so easy the weight helps with the action also great video scout God bless take care 🇳🇿🙏🗽🇺🇸
Great video John. I just bought a lot of 3 vintage industrial scissors. Two came apart fine. The last one they peened the screw after they put on the nut. I had a hell of a time getting the nut off. Now I’m trying to figure out if I can find a replacement screw and nut, or maybe get a tap and die to chase the threads. It looks to be a 1/4-28 so I’ll need to buy a tap and die as I don’t have that size. Do you have any special suppliers for replacement scissor screws?? I may be able to salvage the original but not sure. The peen was very deep.
@@ScoutCrafter Yup, unfortunately my lathe is a 1939 Craftsman Atlas which is in pieces on my work awaiting refurbishing. I’m planning on a full takedown, cleanup, repainting worthy of the “John Quality Approach”. Actually both of us have very similar views on that. So first the tap and die approach. If it works I’m golden. If not then that pair may need to wait for the lathe. Best Regards, John
I have a scissors collection too. It started when I used to work in my fathers textile factory with the girl who became my wife, and we both used scissors hundreds of times a day and I just developed an urge to find the best I could find.
How does scissors cut through cloth like khaki, Levi's, wool...material that Taylor's of yesteryear had to cut? Grandpa scolded me when I cut paper and cardboard.
Nice pair of scissors! Was the screw peeled over and difficult to remove? I have an old pair of fabric sheers I picked up somewhere. I’ll have to send u a pic. The handles are nice and deep and fit the curve of your thumb nicely.
Beautiful scout I got a question. Were can I find old hand wood working tools for cheap. There so expensive, most of the old hand tools I have, I've restored.
Candie- This is going to sound strange but Tractor and Steam Engine Shows! That is the best place to find old hand tools of all kinds as they almost always have a flea market type area with the show and it is always great! Depending on the state you live in you can search "Tractor show in Your state" Here in the North East we love Pennsylvania shows the best! Also Connecticut has great shows... Ebay is always an option too but the best deals is when you search for "lots" like "Woodworking tool lot" =D
Thank you iam only 19 I been doing this since I was like 10 right now Iam having trouble making these jaws on this vise square. It one that you can claim to your bench.
Those scissors are from the 30s based on the logo. Great job my brother. A true test of them would be to cut some Cotton cloth. Looking forward to your next vid.
Thank you for the amazing video you put out when it comes to angle grinders I saw one at tractor supply they have a porter cable for $29 just in case you're interested for a backup at a reasonable price I was thinking of buying it myself and I'm sure it's better quality than drill Master any day and probably comparable to Bauer
Did anyone else's mom have the "good scissors"? She somehow knew when I had borrowed them to cut paper or something. I couldn't resist because they really were the good scissors.
When you cleaned the surfaces to be glued on the mug you used denatured alcohol but when you cleaned off the excess you used rubbing alcohol. Why do you use the different types ?
Denatured alcohol has no water so it’s great for prepping the surface. Isopropyl alcohol has water but is a great economical cleaner for overflow areas. Denatured could be used but it’s become quite costly as of late. 😃👍
You could always keep the mug and use it as a pen holder, or “bit pot” where you put little small things you don’t want to lose. I have pen pots in nearly every room in the house, from mugs the kids have given me over the years. Interesting watching you cutting paper and then talk about cutting fabric. A seamstress would never cut paper with fabric shears. It’s considered a crime heh heh.
Usually Tailors will have a "special" pair of scissors reserved only for certain materials. I am the same way, I have scissors for different jobs and don't want to mess up the sharp ones on something that could dull them. =D
John - I’m curious if your other Semper Fidelis viewer like me find themselves looking at project by thinking - ‘How would the Scoutcrafter do this ...’ For example, I was thinking of making some machinist jacks for my drill press and may still do it the way blondhacks did but then thought John would use some of those old sockets you have laying around with a nut an approx length of all thread or a bolt that fit then add a little JB weld ...
They look like you did a sharp job cheesey joke of the day serious they are very nice and best coffee is what I brew myself got a few mugs with semential value I enjoy myself
9:45 There is a quick and dirty way to attach the mug handle. Using an angled drill, pre-drill from the inside of the mug into the handle ends (twice). Use 2 stainless steel screws to attach the handle, just like a drawer handle! =P Gotcha!
Hi Ed- The problem with lacquer is it chips... Much more then enamel... I must have a couple gallons here in the basement as I used to spray it on vehicles and bicycles. It looks great but I find it hard to keep on the tool! =D Thanks!!
I hope you're not carrying around your mascot and having it laugh at all your jokes. 🤣🤣 Those scissors turned out great. Wonder is this is a pet peeve of yours like it is mine... I can't stand having someone hand me a pair of scissors, a knife, a screwdriver or even a hammer unless they have a hold of the sharp/work end and they are offering me the handle. Maybe I'm getting too old and the wifey is right, I need to let that stuff go. 🤣🤣
Hey scout you know what happened to toolrescue911 he hasn’t lost in a long time thought I ask I love your guys videos and love that you guys share tool knowledge
My wife has this theory that cutting paper with scissors RUINS them - if she caught me doing that with her dressmaker's shears, my life would be hell for the next week. Where she got this info from I've no idea - any thoughts, John?
Hi Tony! Yes! She is right! Cutting fabric requires a super sharp pair of scissors. Years ago most people who who used to sew would have a special pair of scissors just for cutting fabric and wouldn't use them for anything else. Paper and cardboard are hard on any edged tool so cutting paper with fabric shears was frowned upon. =D I will cover all of that by the end of the month with my Scissor special! =D
My wife has the same opinion so I checked it out and sure enough, the chemicals (especially clay which is used as a stiffener) can dull and wear out the edge. Keep peace in the family and do not use her fabric or hair cutting scissors for anything other than for what she uses them. Jim
My guy, you are preserving this beautyful tool for the next generations and decades. Imagine how many persons used and cherished this pair of scissors before you. And now, thanks to you, these scissors will be around for another 200 years, and many, many people will love and cherish them. BTW I love the accent.
Hey ScoutCrafter! Those short coffee sticks make for great small glue stirrers/applicators for smaller projects! Having a few of the lying around can be useful!
Oftentimes the best gifts are from those who have no obligation to give, yet as small as they may seem, are cherished beyond others. Johns mug is a perfect example.
That was great! I unearthed a box of scissors at my Grandpa's shop, i believe i saw that exact pair in the pile. Great stuff! Cheers
What a beautiful pair of scissors! 👍✨ Nice work John!
That mug is awesome! Such a nice gift and memory!
A beautiful job on the scissors. And some excellent “how to do it” advice. Thanks so much.
Very nice! I didn’t know Craftsman made scissors. Any time I see a sewing room at an estate sale I look for the “good scissors”. I have a pretty good collection now. Take care 😃👍🏼
Nice restoration. Shears are such an underrated tool. Thanks Scoutcrafter!
Your videos are a cut above the rest.😁
Have a Jesus filled day everyone
Greg in Michigan
Vintage scissors are so neat. They get handed down survive wars and everything lol. The stories they could tell us would be something else I'm sure 🐱👍
I bought a cheap set of taps and dies for a job and it had a thread pitch gage in the case. I use the gage 3 times as often as the taps or dies.
Sharpening scissors is a favorite gimmick sales opportunity. I occasionally find a pair that have been ground to destruction. Rippled and crooked because someone used the "sharpener" on their electric can opener. Your drawfile and stone method is the way to go. 😁😎
Dave the steel is so hard on scissors that draw filing is a very slow process but stops you from taking off too much metal! (Which I have done more then once!) LOL!! Thanks!

Love the emergency mug repair ❤️
Great info on sharpening. I always wondered why most have black handles. Stay safe and healthy my friend. Thanks
Those scissors look sharp now! I dig that sharp scissor sound!
The shears look like brand new! What a great Mosh. Thanks for sharing this.

Next week I will be doing a whole episode on Scissors... I think (hope) you will enjoy it!!!
Amazing job John, and great info on sharpening, love the sound they make now!
Awesome scissors never saw a pair like that for sure probably would be great for cutting fabric for upholstery.
Hi Ken! Years back Sears sold EVERYTHING!!! I sure do miss them!

Beautiful scissors - although I like the brass handle look. Your vids always inspire me to get into the shop if I could just get off the couch.😃
I watched this video to learn about scissors and also learned a lot about epoxy. Thank you.

Hearing you say there’s a type of screw thread you don’t have actually surprised me!

John - I’m curious if your other Semper Fidelis viewer like me find themselves looking at project by thinking - ‘How would the Scoutcrafter do this ...’ For example, I was thinking of making some machinist jacks for my drill press and may still do it the way blondhacks did but then thought John would use some of those old sockets you have laying around with a nut an approx length of all thread or a bolt that fit then add a little JB weld ...
Gerry- I have often in a pinch used a nut on a bolt as a machinist jack! =D
Never had much luck sharpening scissors but next time I will do it your way and see what happens. Thanks!
When I was in grade school a pair of those craftsmans were in every classroom.
Wow! I never seen them before myself! Thanks Kevin!
They look like you did a sharp job cheesey joke of the day serious they are very nice and best coffee is what I brew myself got a few mugs with semential value I enjoy myself
9:45 There is a quick and dirty way to attach the mug handle. Using an angled drill, pre-drill from the inside of the mug into the handle ends (twice). Use 2 stainless steel screws to attach the handle, just like a drawer handle!
=P Gotcha!
So that’s been my problem all along - listening to my brain. I’ll have to learn to stop doing that. Beautiful job on the scissors.
Wouldn’t it be great if Lisa watch this video :-) PS great restoration I always enjoy the Scissors :-)

I think that coffee cup plug would make a nifty little epoxy stirrer or applicator. Sharpen for a tooth pick.
